Chapter 693: Future Prospects
Li Pin glanced into the distance and said, "The Astral Gate has opened. I shall head over now."
Bai Chao nodded. "Go on."
Watching Li Pin's departing figure, he felt a slight sense of regret for the young prodigy. Just a little bit more, and he might have become the personal disciple of a Highlord!
Becoming a personal disciple of the Highlord... What an unparalleled honor! It would have been a true leap to the heavens. Alas, becoming the personal disciple of a Highlord was no easy feat. After all, Highlords naturally had exceptionally high standards.
Li Pin had already performed exceptionally well by cultivating a Supreme Technique to nearly the fourth level in merely ten stellar years. While he had taken advantage of the unique environment of the Golden Land and the massive amount of Creation Gold Coins and Fortune, ten stellar years were still nothing compared to the thousands of years others required.
However, to a Highlord, any Prodigy was merely another name. They only cared about other Highlords, existences on their own level.
Moreover, Li Pin was walking the Supreme path rather than the Highlord path... In the end, he still lacked a tiny bit of fate.
Almost as soon as Li Pin stepped toward the Astral Gate, two figures hurriedly projected their avatars. They were none other than Yun Tu and Ran Shenji. These two vice hall masters were running slightly late.
"Where is Li Pin?" Yun Tu immediately asked. He then continued, "The Hall Master wishes to see him."
"The Hall Master?" Bai Chao repeated, feeling slightly startled.
He quickly looked toward the Astral Gate. However, the Astral Gate had already been fully activated, and Li Pin was nowhere to be seen.
"Shall I send a message to Li Pin and ask him to return?" Bai Chao immediately asked.
